Mr
December 28, 2022

Overall was good and easy to navigate through your website to find a best deal possible.
In the past we have used Smart fair and has been good. Although I had a situation with cancellation issue due to my Borther got sick and couldn't make the trip and they weren't accommodating to help. When it comes to cancellation that might be challenge to get someone to help you.

I bought a ticket and purchased the bag option. Then, when I got to the airport in Antalya, Turkiye, they said I did not purchase the bag. I tried calling Smart Fares from the airport on my internet phone but was on hold for such a long time that when they did answer I got disconnected because the internet had a 30 min limit. I ended up having my roaming calls cut off 5 different times going through customs & immigration. When I finally talked to a Rep, he informed me that I needed to call back and order my bag separately as the option was only for lost or delayed baggage. So, it cost me $263 for my bag. I asked the Rep why I would get baggage insurance if I didn't pay for a bag. That's SmartFares Policy. WHAT A WORTHLESS COMPANY! THE AMOUNT OF MONEY AND AGGRAVATION SPENT ON ROAMING CALLS AND A BAG BECAUSE OF THEIR DECEPTIVE POLICY ENSURES THEY WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANY OF MY INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS AGAIN.

Hi, when i bought my ticket, the total cost of my airlines tickets was 4552,38 $ Canadien. In my crédit card bill, you charged me 4888,95 $ Canadien. Why the amount is not same. The difference between 300$ Canadien, is very high. I want to get a refund.
